Billie's POV

"Are you fuckers ready for a new year?!" Tré stood on top of the couch.

"Yeah," everyone shrugged.

"Oh come on where's the enthusiasm?!" He gave us a glare.

"Yeah!" The four of us said in unison.

"That's more like it! I got the champagne!" He hopped off the couch.

"I'm gonna miss you," Gerard told Bandit.

"Oh I'm gonna miss you more," they hugged.

"Party time losers!" Tré came in with a cooler. How does he get all this shit? "Our happy couple gets the first glass," he started pouring champagne into the paper cups.

"Dear lord," Bandit sighed.

"Oh come on Bandita! We need a picture for the wedding!" Tré handed us two cups.

"If you hurt my camera I will end you," Bandit said and handed him the camera and sat down next to me.

"Feisty! Now look cute, we all know you guys can't top me but at least try," Tré demanded.

"Don't push it Chipmunk," Bandit glared at him.

"Look cute!" Tré yelled.

"Jeez Tré," I laughed and out my arm around Bandit. Bandit brought her legs up on the couch and leaned her head on me.

"That's better, smile love birds!" He said and clicked the picture and the flash went off in my face. "Perfect!" He set the camera on the table. "You two acted more like a couple when you weren't a couple."

"How so?" Bandit asked.

"You always held hands and were all huggy and now you act like you're afraid of each other," Mike cut in.

"It's been a day, it's barely been twenty four hours," I said.

"Eh," Tré shrugged and plopped onto the rocking chair.

"Or did they have a fight that we didn't know about?" Mike leaned back giving us a suspicious look.

"More like I don't wanna hear the couple bull shit so I've been at arms length," Bandit said.

Gerard laughed at her, "you're gonna get it no matter what."

"Ugh," Bandit buried her face in my chest.

"Aww," Tré giggled.

"Hide away young one," Mike laughed.

"Help me," she hugged me.

"Leave her alone," I laughed and hugged her back.

"We haven't asked Gerard to tell us all the embarrassing things about Bandit yet though," Mike said.

"There's a lot," Gerard said.

"Bandit I'm sorry but I wanna hear this," I told her.

She lifted her head, "It's okay I have a lot on all of you keep in mind," she laid her head back down on me.

"Well BeeDee where do I start?" Gerard asked.

"I don't know! Have a field day!" She turned her head so she could look at him.

"Oh field day! I'm fourth grade we got in a mud fight and for the rest of the school day the two of us were covered in mud and we got a rash and ticks and everything," he told us.

"Oh that sucks," Mike said.

"Hmm what else?" Gerard leaned back.

"Her first kiss!" Tré yelled.
